Review:
There are five volcanoes in Washington State and Glacier Peak is one of them. Glacier Peak is very seldom climbed because it is hidden from view, and also because years of storms and flooding have washed away any and all access roads, so conquering Glacier Peak requires a hike of at least 10 miles to even reach its base. With a bare minimum of 3 days and 8,000 feet elevation gain, climbing Glacier Peak is not necessarily the most technical or difficult climb on this list, but it is a very long and strenuous one simply because of the length and accessibility.
